Friday 8th December - bike **** – Two rivers including lunch at
Landguard - sunny and mild:)
Walk ****
Woke to abit of fog and light winds so got up and drove down to Felixstowe
Ferry to get some pics of the boats on the River Deben, sadly the fog had
almost disappeared by the time I parked near the Ferrboat pub. I walked
around the boatyard as the sun started to appear above the cloud so walked
along the river to the Martello Tower. With the sun cloud and hardly a
cloud in the sky, a big improvement on yesterday I returned to the boatyard
getting some cracking pics with the looking amazing with some fantastic
reflections, I also got some nice pics of reflections in puddles before
returning home for breakfast and to send some pics to the local TV weather,
I was lucky enough to have two chosen as BBC editers pick and got one on
the lunchtime Look East:)
Bike ****
Being mild after a spell of cold weather I was hoping to get out
windsurfing but I had enough time to do my exercises but the wind was not
playing ball so we decided to pack a picnic and head out on our bikes, the
first time for a month! We set off through Langer Park, Mag is not keen on
the busy Felixstowe roads as the cars pass by much to close! Then through
the lovely Landguard Nature Reserve stopping by our spot by the concrete
bunker near the small wooden pier with a small tug idling in the midle of
the Orwell. Then a container ship called Daisy came into view and we were
entertained by that while having our yummy picnic:) Well rested and with
Maeva coming this afternoon we headed for home, back tp the very sandy prom
with Mag turning for home while I continue to Felixstowe Ferry before
whizzing home as the sun disappeared behind a cloud and had a fantastic
afternoon with the lovely Maeva, she is a complete star, a happy little
thing:)
